Cool switch window / task switcher window

[Guest Jungfraujock]

Hi, i must have run some application that has changed some of my windows XP

settings, i noticed that when i enter ALT-TAB keys to switch between active

applications, the little popup window that has all the application icons

listed will only stay up for a couple of seconds and then goes away before i

release ALT-TAB keys, so i never get a chance to select the application i

want to switch to. is there a registry key or somewhere that control this

setting? Thanks for the help.

If it's a laptop, you may need to update the Touchpad driver, or adjust

it's settings back to default. Or could one of the Accessibility

Options be activated?

 

Once you press Alt-Tab, release the Tab key and just hold down the Alt.

Then with each press of the Tab key, you will scroll one icon to the

right. Holding Alt-Shift and pressing Tab will scroll one icon to the left.

You're welcome. Always better a driver than hardware...
